Mr. Speaker, we are committed to reforming child and family services for first nations.

To close the gap in funding, we are investing over $1 billion over the next five years.

We are determined to work with first nations, the provinces, and the agencies to achieve real reform so that children need no longer live in fear and can achieve well-being.
